Vera Vinho Verde 2011

image

Vinho Verde FTW! This one is much like a Lambrusco, a deep rose’, slightly fizzy. Very enjoyable in a limited category.

Rating: 6.5/10 (Hum)

Lurra Garnacha 2011

image

Alcohol taste at first ; better after some airing but unremarkable all around. Rating: Meh. 2/10


Angaro by Finca la Celia

image

50-50 Torrontés Chenin. Not a fan of Torrontés so the Chenin is a welcome blend. It’s young, and does its job. Rating : 5.5/10 (pretty drinkable)


Sterling Vintners Collection 2010

image

Something super Tuscan about this Central Cali babe. Was put off initially by the mish mash of grapes but it really works. It’s substantial yet young, vibrant, laid back. Rating: Yeah 8/10


Crios Rosé de Malbec

image

Rosé that drinks like a white. Has own personality, albeit not a distinguished one. Rating : hum. 6/10
